I can understand Zeigler getting frustrated. I was frustrated just listening. Talking with people who can’t hold logical thoughts is extremely aggravating.

Thanks, Keemo.

I stop by irregularly, mainly for the links. HotAir is still one of the best, timeliest news aggregators for important (usually) issues; however, I pretty much camp out at Ace Of Spades HQ. My inner Howard Beale still needs its sounding board. Plus, the funny at Ace is top-notch. I can’t make it through a day these days without laughing at something.

But thanks again for the welcome back. Good to see you’re still in fine form.

PS – Palin for 2012, Ziegler for media management, and Allen for the trash heap.

Oh and my opinion on Gov’r Palin: She wasn’t ready, but the best Sen. McCain had on tap for the job. Better than the Wbots pushing Romney and better than Sen. Lieberman who’d split the GOP. The Gove of Love also had a point re: AIP and Todd Palin. I think she’s more in touch than the pros.

It’ll be interesting to watch.

She got skewered in the interviews with Charlie Gibson (who basically cut and pasted her responses to make it seem like she was answering the wrong question) and Katie Couric, who tried to paint her as illiterate because Palin wouldn’t tell Couric what magazines and newspaperes she read.

Chalk that up to inexperience–after all, she was only 44 years old during that campaign! But she is a fast learner, which she has proven in the past in Alaska. She is a sharp debater, and smart and articulate when she discusses policy and knows the issues. She still has another 3 years to “learn the ropes” about how Washington works, and the repeated media bashing about her personal life just gives her more time in the spotlight, leading more voters to hear her side, and be convinced that, well maybe she’s NOT stupid, and she makes a lot of sense.

One has to wonder–if liberals have both the Presidency and both houses of Congress, why do they go out of their way to bash Sarah Palin, who as Governor of far-off Alaska with only three people in Congress has little influence over the Federal Government? Probably because they think she is dangerous to their agenda–she’s young and attractive, she’s conservative, she’s honest, she’s smart, and she’s fearless, and needs to be destroyed at all costs. Most likely, these ridiculous attacks will backfire on the liberals, and make Sarah Palin stronger in the future.

Are you serious? With all the idiocy by Obama you think he understands economics? A guy who doesn’t know what P and L stands for?

UNBELIEVEABLE.

Palin can only dream of being in Allen’s league.

That’s the funniest part, RadClown: he’s being nailed for saying she gave “stupid interviews” but he couldn’t give a single example, and in the course of this, himself giving the stupidest of all possible interviews.

Ziegler handled him great, but I would have liked to have heard him rattle off the interviews Palin actually gave while she was down south. She first did one with Lauer and one with Blitzer. Both were heavy on policy, and it was widely noticed that she hit both of ‘em right out of the park. They both tried to get the Letterman stuff in at the ends, and she was pretty gracious about it. And then there was the walk in the park chat with Hannity. None of these were “stupid interviews.”

John could have really gotten under this weasel’s skin if he’d asked after the fourth repetition of the “some people say…” line, whether this was the only thing Mike had written on the paper in front of him. He was clearly reading from a prepared statement, and had no more back-up!

It’s hard to imagine how this guy, Allen, is considered professional. He simply avoided the basic question over and over about her “causing” this by giving bad interviews.

She really hasn’t.
